Mollenhauer Denner Alto 5224 - Grenadilla (baroque fingering)

The Denner Alto: a Recorder Inspired by Historical Models, at the Top of the Range

The Denner series is part of Mollenhauer's high-end recorders, developed from the original instruments of Jacob Denner (1681-1735). This "historical instrument copy" approach aims for a bright Baroque sound and precise response, while benefiting from consistent modern manufacturing. The redesigned bore of this Denner alto emphasizes stability, balance, and controlled intonation, expanding your musical expression possibilities without compromise.

For Which Players and Repertoires?

The Mollenhauer Denner alto is primarily intended for intermediate to advanced musicians, as well as demanding players in conservatories, Baroque ensembles, or early music groups. Its Baroque fingering and design focused on "Baroque timbre" make it especially suitable for the Baroque repertoire, chamber music, recorder ensembles, and more broadly any context where intonation and register homogeneity are essential.
